s390: Keep inittext section writable
There is no added security by making the inittext section non-writable,
however it does split part of the kernel mapping into 4K mappings
instead of 1M mappings:

Keep the inittext writable and enable instruction execution protection
(aka noexec) later to prevent this. This also allows to use the
generic free_initmem() implementation.
